Aurora over a Glacier Lagoon byJames Woodend (UK)*A vivid green overhead aurora pictured in Iceland's Vatnajškull National Park reflected almost symmetrically in Jökulsárlón  Glacier lagoon. A complete lack of wind and current combine in this sheltered lagoon scene to create an arresting mirror effect, giving the image a sensation of utter stillness.
